|
This crate provides multi-producer multi-consumer channels for message passing.
|
|
It is an alternative to [`std::sync::mpsc`] with more features and better performance.
|
|
|
|
Some highlights:
|
|
|
|
* [`Sender`]s and [`Receiver`]s can be cloned and shared among threads.
|
|
* Two main kinds of channels are [`bounded`] and [`unbounded`].
|
|
* Convenient extra channels like [`after`], [`never`], and [`tick`].
|
|
* The [`select!`] macro can block on multiple channel operations.
|
|
* [`Select`] can select over a dynamically built list of channel operations.
|
|
* Channels use locks very sparingly for maximum [performance](benchmarks).

## Usage
|
|
|
|
Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[dependencies]
|
|
crossbeam-channel = "0.4"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Compatibility
|
|
|
|
Crossbeam Channel supports stable Rust releases going back at least six months,
|
|
and every time the minimum supported Rust version is increased, a new minor
|
|
version is released. Currently, the minimum supported Rust version is 1.36.
